According to the newspaper article mentioned below. William Carl and Mary (Rambow) Heiden probably moved to this farm in 1898 after living at 8420 Dixon Road for the first year of their marriage. This was where their first child, Edna (Heiden) Berns, was born in 1898.

In 1899, they purchased the farm next door to the east at 6003 South Custer where they lived until 1909 when they purchased a larger farm at 8861 Dixon Road.

The house shown above is as it stands in the mid-2010s and we do not know if the same house was there when the Heidens were in residence.

In a 1995 conversation with Helma (Heiden) Nickel who was Wm and Mary's 7th child and the first one to be born at 8861 Dixon Road, she stated that this place was called the Eby farm.

Also according to Helma, her younger brother, Arthur Heiden, worked at the Knapp farm which was located just east of here during his late teens in the 1920s.

In 1952, in honor of their 55th wedding anniversary, D.N. Roberts, known as The County Visitor, interviewed Wm Carl and Mary for an article which appeared in the Monroe Evening News. The following paragraph appeared in that article and it helped us find the four places they lived as a married couple starting after their marriage in 1897 and lasting until Wm Carl's death in 1967.
 

"Mr and Mrs. Heiden rented a farm just east of their present home on the same road. The farm is known now as the Albert Adler farm. [8420 Dixon Road]. Here they farmed for one year, then moved to a farm John Eby now owns on South Custer Rd. [6130 South Custer] They bought the place next to it, where August Albright now lives [6003 South Custer], and when they sold that farm, they bought and moved to their present location [8861 Dixon Rd], where they have lived for the last 43 years."
